  • Raw Product

    It seems that the fans of the Boston Bruins are not worthy of a truly high quality podcast. On one side of the ring, The Morning BRU, in which Jaffe and Razor seem to be sorely lacking the caffeine infusion needed to avoid their sleepy, rambling podcast that seems totally off the cuff and without concise thought. On the other side, we have this podcast, the Skate, which presents three energized and intelligent hosts but is so horribly edited it is difficult to listen to. Commercials are inter... more

    Really good podcast, but please, please turn the mics up! I have to turn the volume all the way up and can still barely hear it.

  • Amateur Hour

    In a world in need of good/great hockey podcasts, this isn’t one. From audio issues to rambling segments, this is more often than not, unlistenable. In the most recent episode, they were lamenting not being able to figure out how to go live to cover Monty’s firing and not willing to pay for “X Premium” to do so…amateur hour.

  • Stop laughing my god

    Would be good but the women on the show can’t go 5 seconds without laughing at her own not funny things she says. I don’t get it. Maybe it’s a nervous thing but she just laughs at things that aren’t even funny. No one laughs but her.

  • Excellent podcast

    Always look forward to a new episode. The trio have great discussion and insight into the Bruins and I really appreciate how they’re comfortable disagreeing with each other. The audio issues can be frustrating at times, but at the end of the day the quality of the conversation is top notch. Keep up the excellent work.
